The DBA 4000 Series rotor for the Civic Si is a mid-level brake rotor that has more
than enough performance for any street driven car and will work very
well on a weekend track toy or autocrosser. DBA 4000 Series rotors
feature Thermal Stability Profiling (TSP) for improved heat handling.
TSP enhances the micro-structure of the rotor material providing greater
thermal stability. Increasing the thermal stability allows your DBA
rotors to take more heat, making them more stable under heavy, frequent
braking. DBA rotors with TSP will experience improved brake pad and
rotor life.
Thermo-Graphic paint markings on the edge of DBA's 4000 Series rotor
change color at specific temperature thresholds allowing you to check
your braking performance quickly and easily. Green changes to white at
856°F, orange will change to yellow at 1022°F and the red will change to
white after 1166°F. Ideal braking temperatures are between 850°F and
1000°F (so the green will become white and the orange and red are
unchanged).
- Note:
- DBA brake rotors are sold by the PAIR ONLY.

DBA's Kangaroo Paw ventilation design delivers significantly improved
braking performance under all conditions to make you safer than ever
before. The innovative Kangaroo Paw design outperforms traditional
straight vane disc brake rotors and allows your brakes to runs cooler.
Traditionally, heat is removed as air flows through the rotor passing
between straight cooling vanes. However, the straight vane design does
not provide the ideal conditions for heat to be dissipated and tends to
trap heat. The Kangaroo Paw features 144 precisely positioned diamond
and tear-drop pillars which create a exceptionally strong, reliable, and
efficient cooling system. The increased surface area created by the
pillars allows for very rapid heat dissipation. DBA's Kangaroo Paw
ventilation system quickly removes the heat as cool air flows in from
the center of the disc while hot air is forced to the outside of the
disc, cooling the discs and return your braking system to optimal
operating temperature.
